load multiple images and places them in specific coordination in a saving file

as in the title above, i need to load multiple images files with same sizes and places them in their specific coordination in a result saved image file, how to do that? what classes should i use? thanks!

you could do it by learning SDL library,
create a target SDL_Surface* to collect all the images together in one place
then create another surface and use SDL_LoadBMP() to load the individual images,
then create an SDL_Rect to contain the target position and width/height of each image
then use SDL_BlitSurface() to copy them in memory to the target surface at the location defined by the rect,
blit in a loop until you have all your images blitted
then finally use SDL_SaveBMP() to capture the target surface
